Class Periods are Scheduled to be Completed within 2 weeks

The dates and times for the classes are scheduled on specific days by the driving school. Most classes have two time periods to choose from, normally labeled as Group 1 and Group 2. Students should not register for a class if they are not available for all 7 class periods. If a student misses a class period then they should be prepared to wait until a seat is available to make-up the class period missed.

During the school year, teen classes are conducted after school hours from 3:00-8:00 pm. We usually have 2 teen classes a month, sometimes more.

During the summer, teen classes can be conducted during any of hour driving instruction hours which are from 9:00 am - 6:00 pm. We usually have 3-4 teen classes a month.

The 180-Day Temporary Driver's License

The course completion certificate (Virginia Driver Training Certificate) that the student receives after passing the road skills test is a valid 180-day temporary driver's license when accompanied by a valid Virginia learner's permit. A student must have possessed the learner's permit for at least 9 months and be at least 16 years and 3 months old to use the 180-day temporary driver's license.

Eligibility to Use the 180-Day Temporary Driver's License

have completed 45 hours of guided driving practice with at least 15 hours after sunset

The 180-day temporary license WILL NOT be issued until the student submits a driving log with the 45 hours of driving recorded and recorded correctly. Parent or Guardian will be required to sign the teen's 180-day temporary driver's license stating that the teen completed the requirement of 45 hours of driving before the issuance of the driver's license. Falsifying information to obtain a driver's license is illegal. Anyone who certifies to a false statement may be prosecuted. DMV will not issue, for a period of one year, a driver's license when a person has made a willful material false statement on any application for a driver's license.
